An air/water heat pump can use the outdoor air to heat a property. Theconversion of the outdoor air's energy to property heating occurs in threedifferent circuits. In the brine circuit, (1) , free heat energy is retrieved fromthe surroundings and transported to the heat pump. In the refrigerantcircuit, (2) , the heat pump increases the retrieved heat's low temperatureto a high temperature. In the heating medium circuit, (3) , the heat is dis-tributed around the house.

Outdoor airThe outdoor air is sucked into the heat pump.AThe fan then routes the air to theheat pump’s evaporator. Here, the air releasesthe heating energy to the refrigerant and the air's temperature drops. Thecold air is then blown out of the heat pump.

B

Refrigerant circuitA gas circulates in a closed system in the heat pump, a refrigerant, which alsopasses the evaporator. The refrigerant has a very low boiling point. In theevaporator the refrigerant receives the heat energy from the outdoor air andstarts to boil.

C

The gas that is produced during boiling is routed into an electrically poweredcompressor.When thegas is compressed, the pressure increases and the gas'stemperature increases considerably, from 5 °C to approx. 80°C.

D

From the compressor, gas is forced into a heat exchanger, condenser, whereit releases heat energy to the heating system in the house, whereupon thegas is cooled and condenses to a liquid form again.

E

As the pressure is still high, the refrigerant can pass an expansion valve, wherethe pressure drops so that the refrigerant returns to its original temperature.The refrigerant has now completed a full cycle. It is routed to the evaporatoragain and the process is repeated.

F

Heat medium circuitThe heat energy that the refrigerant produces in the condenser is retrievedby the climate system's water, heating medium, which is heated to 55 °C(supply temperature).

G

The heating medium circulates in a closed system and transports the heatedwater's heating energy to thehousewater heater and radiators/heating coils.

H

The temperatures are only examples and may vary between different installations andtime of year.

Page 17: NIBE™ F2030 · Certification that the installation is carried out according to instructions ... F2030 can also be used together with most electric boilers, ... starts to boil. C

LEK/APH

Keep free of snow and/or ice.

Cleaning the outer casing

If necessary the outer casing can be cleaned using a damp cloth.

Care must be exercised so that the heat pump is not scratched whencleaning. Avoid spraying water into the grilles or the sides so that waterpenetrates into F2030. Prevent F2030 coming into contact with alkalinecleaning agents.

Condensation drain pan and condensation water pipe

The trough and drain pipe may require cleaning from leaves or similarduring the year.

Cleaning1. Use the safety switch to cut the incoming electrical supply.

2. Release the trough using the quick release catches on the left andright front edges. Keep in position at the rear edgewithout stretchingthe power cable.

3. Clean drain pans and condensation water pipe/drains.

4. Reinstall the trough using the removal method in reverse order (seepoint 2).

5. Switch on the safety switch again.

In event of long power cuts

In the event of prolonged power failures it is recommended that the partof the heating system located outdoors is drained. Your installer has in-stalled a shut off and drain valve to facilitate this. Call and ask your installerif you are unsure.

Saving tips

Your heat pump installation produces heat and/or hot water. This occursvia the control settings you made.

Factors that affect the energy consumption are, for example, indoor tem-perature, hot water consumption, the insulation level of the house andwhether the house has many large window surfaces. The position of thehouse, e.g. wind exposure is also an affecting factor.

Also remember:

Open the thermostat valves completely (except those thermostats inthe rooms that are tobe kept cooler for various reasons, e.g. bedrooms).The thermostats slow the flow in the heating system, which the heatpumpwants to compensatewith increased temperatures. It thenworksharder and consumes more electrical energy.

Reduceor adjust the settings for heating in anyexternal control systems.

Energy meter

Check the accommodation's energy meter regularly, preferably once amonth. This will indicate any changes in power consumption.

Newly built houses usually have twin energymeters, use the difference tocalculate your domestic electricity.

New builds

Newly built houses undergo a drying out process for a year. The housecan then consume significantly more energy than it would thereafter.After 1-2 years the heating curve should be adjusted again, as well as theheating curve offset and the building's thermostat valves, because theheating system, as a rule, requires a lower temperature once the dryingprocess is complete.

5 Glossary

Additional heat:

The additional heat is the heat produced in addition to the heat suppliedby the compressor in your heat pump. Additional heaters can be for ex-ample, immersion heater, electric heater, solar power system,gas/oil/pellet/wood burner or district heating.

Ambient temperature sensor

A sensor that is locatedoutdoors onor close to the heat pump. This sensortells the heat pump how hot it is where the sensor is located.

Balance temperature

The balance temperature is the outdoor temperature when the heatpump’s stated output is equal to the building’s output requirement. Thismeans that theheatpumpcovers thewholebuilding’s output requirementdown to this temperature.

Charge coil

A charge coil heats the domestic hot water (tap water) in the heater withheating water from F2030.

Charge pump

See "Circulation pump".

Circulation pump

Pump that circulates liquid in a pipe system.

Climate system

Climate systems can also be called heating systems. The building is heatedusing radiators, under floor coils or convector fans.

Coil tank

A heater with a coil in it. The water in the coil heats the water in theheater.

Page 26: NIBE™ F2030 · Certification that the installation is carried out according to instructions ... F2030 can also be used together with most electric boilers, ... starts to boil. C

Compressor

Compresses thegas state refrigerant.When the refrigerant is compressed,the pressure and the temperature increase.

Condenser

Heat exchanger where the hot gas state refrigerant condenses (cooledand becomes a liquid) and releases heat energy to the house heating andhot water systems.

COP

If it is stated that a heat pump has COP 4, this means, in principle that ifyou insert 10pence, youwill get 40penceworth of heat. It is the efficiencyof the heat pump. This is measured at differentmeasurement values, e.g.:7/45 where 7 stands for the outdoor temperature and 45 for howmanydegrees the supply temperature is.

Disturbances in comfort

Disturbances in comfort are undesirable changes to the hotwater/indoorcomfort, for example when the temperature of the hot water is too lowor if the indoor temperature is not at the desired level.

A malfunction in the heat pump can sometimes be noticed in the form ofa disturbance in comfort.

In most cases, the heat pump notes malfunctions and indicates this withalarms in the display.

Domestic hot water

The water one showers in for example.

Double-jacketed tank

A heater with domestic hot water (tap water) is surrounded by an outervesselwith boilerwater (to the house radiators/elements). The heat pumpheats the boiler water, which in addition to going out to the all the houseradiators/elements, heats the domestic hot water in the inner vessel.

Efficiency

Ameasurement of how effective the heat pump is. The higher the valueis the better it is.

This is electricity that, for example, an immersion heater uses as additionduring the coldest days of the year to cover the heating demand that theheat pump cannot manage.

Evaporator

Heat exchangerwhere the refrigerant evaporates by retrievingheat energyfrom the air which then cools.

Expansion valve

Valve that reduces the pressure of the refrigerant,whereupon the temper-ature of the refrigerant drops.

Expansion vessel

Vessel with heatingmedium fluid with the task of equalising the pressurein the heating medium system.

Flow pipe

The line inwhich the heatedwater is transported from the heat pumpoutto the house heating system (radiators/heating coils).

Heat exchanger

Device that transfers heat energy from one medium to another withoutmixing mediums. Examples of different heat exchangers are evaporatorsand condensers.

Heat factor

Measurementof howmuchheat energy theheatpumpgivesoff in relationto the electric energy it needs to operate. Another term for this is COP.

Heating medium

Hot liquid, usually normal water, which is sent from the heat pump to thehouse climate system andmakes the accommodation warm. The heatingmedium also heats the hot water.

Heating medium side

Pipes to the house’s climate systemmake up the heating medium side.

Hot water heater

Containerwhere domestic water is heated. Is located somewhere outsidethe heat pump.

Pressostat

Pressure switch that triggers an alarmand/or stops the compressor if non-permitted pressures occur in the system. A high pressure pressostat tripsif the condensing pressure is too great. A low pressure pressostat trips ifthe evaporation pressure is too low.

Radiator

Anotherword for heating element. Theymust be filledwithwater in orderto be used with F2030.

Refrigerant

Substance that circulates around a closed circuit in the heat pump andthat, through pressure changes, evaporates and condenses. During evap-oration, the refrigerant absorbs heating energy and during condensing,gives off heating energy.

Return pipe

The line in which the water is transported back to the heat pump fromthe house heating system (radiators/heating coils).

Return temp

The temperatureof thewater that returns to theheat pumpafter releasingthe heat energy to the radiators/heating coils.

Safety valve

A valve that opens and releases a small amount of liquid if the pressure istoo high.

Shuttle valve

A valve that can send liquid in two directions. A shuttle valve that enablesliquid to be sent to the climate system, when the heat pump producesheating for the house, and to the hot water heater, when the heat pumpproduces hot water.
